Well, I don't control the network here, I can't make any changes to the DHCP 
server, so network booting is not possible AFAIK, and since the 170Ls don't 
have CD drives, USB keys are my only choice.
 
Hmmm, looking in the BIOS of the 170Ls, I'm remembering I had to "turn on" the 
floppy drive in the BIOS so they could recognize the USB floppy drives we used 
back when we imaged these computers using Norton Ghost.
 
Sounds promising, I'm going to turn that off and try again...
 
Success!
 
Thanks for the pointer!

There may be a setting in the bios which lets you select how the USB key is 
mounted (either floppy or virtual hard disk) I wouldn't know why you're having 
this problem really, it seems like you could boot all of these boxes over the 
LAN and install simultaneously. That's what we do here.

Thanks,
